VALUES


Those values that the God's do own

Appear in man as briefest loan

Of his divinity


The endless quest as man seeks bold

To conquer Earth---- to have and hold

Worlds riches in his arms


The stride to comfort; end to fear---- the gathering of Harvest clear

The build of wealth; the moves in stealth---- accumulate the building fear

Of more to lose


All surplus pales and values shrink; as plenty comes, but mind does think

Of what is lost---- the baby's cry; the fearful eyes beneath the lie---- of drink

That was not offered


And all around lies love that is free for taking

All around lies pity; Grace and Truth in making

Surplus for all needs in those, who waking,


See the crumbs that fell---- from the Tables of the Gods
